Quoth the Wobbling Raven, "Nevermore."

In case this is the first you are hearing of this cool collaboration, you can check out what you missed here: Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Please keep checking back. We will be wobbling all week, ending with a huge Blog Hop on Saturday. Yes, there will be prizes.

I started by stamping this fabulous image onto white cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and spritzing it with Goosebumps Texture Spray. After it dried, I inked the stamped panel with Ranger Rusty Hinge and Antique Linen Distress Ink. I distressed and inked the edges with Memento Grape Jelly ink.

I stamped and spritzed the image a second time, cut out the raven and inked him with Ranger Pumice Stone Distress ink and Memento Grape Jelly ink. To adhere my 'wobbling' raven to the panel I trimmed down the Action Wobble so it fit behind the image, peeled off the adhesive from both ends and pressed. Simple.

Now for the background. On a panel of kraft cardstock, I inked and distressed the edges; spritzed with water and then sprinkled it with Stampendous Aged Gold Embossing Enamel and Purple Jewel Glitter. I heated the enamel and glitter from the underside...love this technique!

Before adhering it all to the card base, I created one more layer by misting and distressing a piece of cheesecloth.

Here's a little video demo of my raven wobbling:

Please visit the following blogs, making sure to leave a comment on each one. One lucky commenter (picked randomly) will win 6 Action Wobbles and this wonderful "Nevermore" stamp.

Ooooooh, love this! That added sprinkling of purple glitter is so perfect. Love the texture from the Goosebumps and the spattering of EP. That gauze just takes it to another creepy level...in a good way. I'm so glad that your are on the team!

ACK!!! Melinda, I LOVE your raven card! Combining the wobble with the raven was pure genius. I have a few of those wobbles sitting on my desk right now and they are seriously needing to be put to use. Thanks for the inspiration :D Also, I am loving that you shared your techniques on the backgrounds. Can't wait to pick up some of the stuff you mentioned and give them a go!
